EVENT DETAILS

Point of No Return TSD Road Rally

Rallymaster: Sandy Grable

This rally will start in Gibson City, be straightforward and approximately 80-100 miles in length. We will wind through the scenic country roads of Ford and McLean Counties featuring the Twin Grove Wind Farm which is on two moraines in Eastern McLean county, just outside of Bloomington. Love them or hate them - these turbines have the capacity to power approximately 60,000 homes in Illinois per year. The rally will not end at the starting point however, but rather at Moraine View State Park which has re-opened!!!! At the conclusion of the rally, we hope you will stay and visit with your fellow rallyists and enjoy some of the park's features for the rest of the afternoon! There are hiking trails, boating (canoes can be rented on site as well), fishing (lake is stocked with largemouth bass, walleye, and northern pike to name a few - don't forget to bring your fishing license though), and horseback riding. Picnic details will follow at a later date.

Registration Info

The entry fee will be $20.00 per team. We recommend that you register close to the time registration opens. This will give you time to do the paperwork including certifying that your vehicle's/driver's insurance meets the appropriate state's standards, that the driver has a valid license, that your rally vehicle is being used with the permission of the owner, is in safe operating condition, is on the road legally, and that all its operational items such as lights, turn signals, brakes, horn, tires, mirrors, seat belts, windshield wipers and windshield washer are in proper working order. It will also give you time to read the rally's general rules and to talk to other rally participants. This last is especially important if you've never run a rally before.

Don't Have a Driver or Navigator?

If you don't have a partner to drive or navigate for you just come by yourself. At almost every rally there are folks who come alone then team up with someone else to run the event. If you are lucky you'll have a chance to team up with someone who has some rally experience. Sometimes that increases your chances of winning a trophy. If you're only slightly less lucky you'll get to run with someone who has no rally experience and have twice the fun as you discover what rallying is all about. At the very worst (which almost never happens) there will be no one to partner with and you will get the chance to work some of the checkpoints and see how everyone is doing as the event progresses.
